A detachable line guide is disclosed. A screw with a helical groove between threads is provided. A guide is positioned a fixed distance perpendicular to the screw and can travel laterally freely. A follower mount is detachably affixed to the guide. The follower mount has a follower that is biased into the groove. Rotation of the screw causes the follower to track the groove and move the follower mount laterally. The guide is configured for a line to pass therethrough. When the line exerts a lateral force above a predetermined threshold against the guide, the guide and the follower mount detach.

Quick drop halyard line roller guides for removable attachment to existing outriggers to allow the user to quickly drop the halyard rigging lines from the outriggers. Quick release roller line guides are provided for removable attachment to the existing eyelet-type circular outrigger line guides. Quick and installation and removal of outrigger halyard lines permits the lines to be safely stored away from harsh environmental conditions when not use thereby extending line life.

A flexible pipe containment sled includes a platform and a first sled portion coupled to a bottom surface of the platform. The first sled portion is disposed at a first side of the platform. The sled also includes a second sled portion coupled to the bottom surface of the platform. The second sled portion is disposed at a second side of the platform opposite to the first side of the platform. The sled also includes a passage formed between the first and second sled portions. The passage is configured to allow a flexible pipe to pass through the passage while the flexible pipe containment sled is placed on a surface.

The conceived invention provides both a film applicator and a method for placing a continuous film sleeve around a hose, or a grouping of a plurality of hoses. The sleeve thickness is approximately mil to 20 mils thick, which is suitable for cleanliness protection and reducing the possibility of ripping when the hoses are dragged across a floor. The embodied invention includes a plastic sleeve payout tube, that surrounds and encompasses the hose/hoses. The hoses are routed through the sleeve payout tube when they are hauled into a building to be cleaned. The payout tube stores a compacted length of an enclosing plastic sleeve, and the sleeve pays off as the hoses are dragged into the facility to be cleaned. The initial attachment of the plastic sleeve and hoses is by use of an adhesive tape or an outer clamping strap.

A winding apparatus includes a first rotation body, and a wire position support, inserted in an insertion hole outside a center axis of the first rotation body, and including first and second wire route holes in which first and second wires are inserted, respectively. The winding apparatus further includes a second rotation body having a center axis and separated from the first rotation body, a shaft body outside the center axis, a synchronous rotation component coupling the wire position support and the shaft body while unrotatably fixed to the wire position support, a winding driver that synchronously rotates the first and second rotation bodies, and inner bearings disposed between the wire position support in the insertion hole and the first rotation body, in which the wire position support is journaled with respect to the first rotation body. Thus, the wire position support revolves orbitally about a core without rotating.

A winding apparatus includes a wire position support including a first feeder including a first wire route hole in which a first wire is inserted and a second feeder including a second wire route hole in which a second wire is inserted, and a winding driver that orbitally revolves the wire position support around a core. The wire position support includes a regulator that regulates movement of the first wire and the second wire such that, when the wire position support revolves orbitally around the core, such that the first wire passes on an opening end surface from which the second wire is fed in the second wire route hole while the second wire passes on an opening end surface from which the first wire is fed in the first wire route hole. Accordingly, the wires are prevented from being entangled in the wire position support.
